Mountain Yurt

We absolutely loved our yurt! It was clean and comfortable. The back deck is completely enclosed so our dogs were contained. Matt is friendly and easy going and our dogs had fun playing with his dogs!

Wonderful Yurt Experience!

The yurt was amazing! I’ve been wanting to stay in one ever since seeing yurts on a trip to Montana, and our stay did not disappoint. We had everything we needed, beautiful land to explore, and wonderfully close to WCU. I can’t wait to come back again

A Christmas to remember

What a peaceful, beautiful and tucked away piece of heaven! We spent 3 days in our pjs resting and recuperating from a long years worth of trials and tribulations. THIS is the best place to do just that! No frills, just basic needs and nature. On our last full day we ventured into Sylva for a little “retail therapy” at Walmart and a few other quaint local shops before returning to Cullowehee to dine on the most delicious pizza at Rodgers Bros.(highly recommended them by the way). Packed and had another wonderful night sleep on our bed that was warmed from beneath the sheets with a warming pad and then atop of the sheets a thick warm duvet. We had some cold nights…28-38 degrees but that just made snuggling more important We will definitely be back, Matt the land owner and his son Cole are gracious hosts. The Stays (booking agents) were very helpful and answered our questions quickly. 10-10

Amazing little yurt!

Great location, on the side of a mountain with trails and rivers to explore all over. Rather bare bones spot of course, but that's why we were there. The path to get to the yurt is very steep and can be rather difficult for smaller cars to get up, although Matt and his son were so kind and so helpful getting us up and situated. Will definitely be back!!
